New software : AVSGenerator

[ZeImp]

AVSGenerator is a quite old french software (with GPL licence) and is now available for english speakers. This is a GUI for generating quickly and easily scripts for AviSynth. Click here (http://www.metaforum.webdynamit.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=267) for more details.

You can find here (http://www.metaforum.webdynamit.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=266) the first english version. If the translation is not very good just change de language file (and give me the updated file). All your suggestions are welcome.

Thx.
Yes, the code is available.

This software is developped under the GPL licence.
The sources (Delphi) are available here but only for members (registration is free).

What did you used for rendering the script's videoclip from Delphi?

I use 'Video For Windows' via the VfW.pas unit (conversion for Delphi of VfW.H unit) for opening and rendering AviSynth scripts.

nice idea.

but a) cant find that mpeg decoder that support my dvd2avi 176cmline d2vs (yet) and something thats not my fault:

The GUI is horrible (sorry). i have scrollbars all over with loads of empty windows where i have to scroll until i find the actual content.
but i´ll definitely will have a look on further versions.
maybe there could be some option to have the video always shown inline with controls ordered around that window?
what i would use it for would just be open script generated avs files to determine trim ranges and cropping values, that are (at least i hope so) incorporated into the existing script at predefined position.


looking forward to see more of this promising piece of soft

It's really strange ! :eek:
Can you give me more informations (OS, ...)

You can see normal screen shots here (http://www.metaforum.webdynamit.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=65) (in french ... sorry) !

I have no problem with the GUI but I don't have a handle on the concept.

Basicly how do I import plgins (.DLLs)?, and then to build the complete script.

The software can take a script model on the hard disk (or use a default model). You can find some models samples in the /scripts AVSGenerator subdirectory, but you can make your own models. In the last tab of the soft you can select your model, the script's variables (Crop (Top, Left, Tight, Bottom), DimX, DimY, Source, ...) are determined by the software and then the complete script is generated. If no model is selected the default script model is used. It's only a simple and fast script.

Good work as far as i've tested it.

A good idea would be to get a way to put plugins into it... like in all other GUIs for Avisynth i've also missed that feature in this one...

Why nobody got such an idea earlier than me? Or is it to difficult to manage?
If yes, it would be very sad because sometimes newbees and some advanced users get problems understand the syntax of some plugins.... like me :D

[ikarus]

thanks for getting back to me zeimp.

as i pointed out , that mpegdec thing is a user problem most obviously, i tested it with an avi file and didnt look into that mpegdec issue further since i got the "trouble" with the gui.

I am still using avisynth 2.08 at the moment, running Win2k SP3.
my screen resolution is 1600x1200 using big fonts.
your screenshots seem to be from teletubbie-edition windows (aka XP)
maybe you are using some XP specific functions for your gui (im no pro so this is just speculation)

french is only a slight problem, i think i can get most of the content but dont expect me to answer you in french ;). I'm sure it's easier for you to understand my english and less embarassing for me ;)

Yes you're right but at the begining the soft wasn't made in that way. It was just a GUI for determining script's models parameters. Then I had a script preview option ... The soft isn't an other AvsEdit : you can use AVSEdit for making your own script models or use AVSGenerator for making a small script and change this script with AVSEdit. But I will think of it ...

Ok, I think that big fonts are the problem. Lot of Delphi softs have this bug. Try with normal fonts ...

hi,
i have a problem with latest avsgenerator
no matter the format of file I tried to open I always get this error message that says "Can't process the selected file"

it popup when I tried to open an .avi file (xvid and divx codecs are installed) or a .d2v file

thanks for reading

[ZeImp]

Hi, see here (http://www.metaforum.webdynamit.net/forums/index.php?showtopic=285) for your question clickit.

AVSGenerator use Microsoft Direct Show for opening AVI files or AVS files. It works fine with some configurations but doesn't work with others (even if codecs are installed).

[clickit]

hi ZeImp,

how can i find out if microsoft's direct show is installed, or not,
and if it isn't how can i install it ?

thanks for your answer (in both forums !!!)

If you have DirectX installed then DirectShow is installed. Run
Dxdiag to test things and see which version is installed. If you get an error running dxdiag then DirectX is not installed. You can install it from www.microsoft.com/directx (http://www.microsoft.com/directx).

@clickit : Install the Helix YV12 / I420 VFW Codecs (http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?&threadid=56972) and try again.

[clickit]

I'll try it and I'll let you know about the results, soon.

thanks again

[EDIT]
Good news. It works !!!
